Windows 7 live USB

Making a Windows 7 bootable USB takes several steps that must be executed in a specific order. This requires UNetbootin 494 binaries from SourceForge. It is also a good idea to also have the regular sys-boot/unetbootin package installed to satisfy all of the binary dependencies.
